Ode to Pete and Jack

On every farm not long ago
You had to have a team
To turn the sod, to haul the hay
To realize your dreams

Pete and Jack, you did just that!
That and so much more
You hauled the wood that fed the fires
You worked hard every day
If you didn't do what you did so well
We wouldn't be here today

With power and grace and steady of pace
The future rested on your backs'
So raise your glases and offer a toast
To the memory of Pete and Jack!

Cheers
